Funny and difficult situations, intrigues, tears, joy — all this will be experienced by young girls on the way to their happiness.

The Immortal Garrison
The Immortal Garrison is set in June of 1941, at the outset of the Nazi invasion of Russia.

The siege of Brest has served as story material for countless Russian films: in lieu of contradictory evidence, Immortal Garrison must be adjudged the best of these films.
